I have listed the texts in reading order, although this list does not include selected electronic and online texts. Please purchase the same edition (I have listed publisher names and ISBNs).
You can find affordable used and new copies of all textbooks on Amazon.com (you can enter the ISBN into the search bar to quickly find the right editions). I have also placed copies of all texts on reserve at Library West.
I am fine with you using Kindle editions of the required texts, but be mindful that Kindle versions often lack page numbers (which can make them challenging to cite when writing papers).
In addition to this list, we will be reading online texts and PDFs, which I will provide. When we are using an online text, please print it out and bring the hard copy to class, or bring it on a laptop, Kindle, or iPad.
